Total time: 50 min
Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: Japanese
Ingredients: 2 cups of all-purpose flour; 1 ½ cups of dashi stock; 2 eggs; 2 cups of shredded cabbage; 4 scallions, thinly sliced; 1 cup of cooked proteins (such as shrimp, pork, or chicken), chopped into small pieces; 1 tablespoon of soy sauce; 1 tablespoon of mirin; ½ teaspoon of salt; ¼ teaspoon of black pepper; Vegetable oil for frying; Okonomi sauce, Japanese mayo, and bonito flakes for topping

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, dashi stock, eggs, soy sauce, mirin, salt, and pepper. Whisk together until smooth and well-combined, creating a slightly thick batter.
Add the shredded cabbage, sliced scallions, and your choice of cooked proteins into the batter. Gently fold them in until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of vegetable oil.
Scoop a ladleful of the Okonomiyaki batter onto the pan, spreading it out to form a round pancake shape, about ½ inch thick.
Cook the Okonomiyaki for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Once both sides are cooked and the cabbage is tender, transfer the Okonomiyaki to a plate.
Drizzle Okonomi sauce and Japanese mayo on top of the pancake, then sprinkle with bonito flakes for an authentic touch.
Repeat the process with the remaining batter to make more Okonomiyaki pancakes.
Serve the Okonomiyaki hot, garnished with extra scallions and a side of pickled ginger or a refreshing salad.
